Get ready for an extraordinary celebration of humanity and connection at this year’s Coastal Twist LGBTIQ Arts and Culture Festival, the Coastie Carnie Fair Day.
Be prepared for a day of unparalleled vibrancy, culture, and pure fun, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of art, live music, entertainment, food, beverages, shopping, and pets in a delightful mass outdoor free festival.
To be held on Sunday, October 1, from 10am to 5pm at the Peninsula Recreation Precinct at Umina Beach, the free event is open to all and promises a day filled with unforgettable experiences.
Last year’s Coastie Carnie Fair Day attracted more than 9,000 locals, visitors, kids, families, and furry friends, all converging to celebrate life.
The Coastie Carnie Fair Day will feature a stellar line-up across live music, drag, circus, burlesque and sideshow ensuring entertainment throughout the day.
The stage will come alive with electrifying performances by headliners such as Kira Puru, Cry Club, Hollywould Star, Jasey Fox, Jazida, Jess Love, and of course, our favourite Local Legends.
The Rainbow Family Area will feature an exciting line-up of activities including circus play with Roundabout Circus, drag storytime with Wonder Mama, the Superhero and Glambassador of Love and Equality, sensory play space and Twisties party games with June Richards.
But it doesn’t stop at music and entertainment – the Coastie Carnie Fair Day market features local makers, businesses, delectable food, a bar, and the iconic Puparazzi pooch parade hosted by television personality Tim Dormer and local Queen June Richards.
Participants should be ready to set-up for the day and bring a rug, chairs and sun protection.
Diversity takes centre stage in this festival, with more than 55 percent of the programming tailored for all ages and 65 per cent of events being free, showcasing and celebrating the beauty of diversity across the natural world.
“We want to see everyone there for a vibrant, inclusive, and fun day, shining a light on togetherness, the human spirit, and the creative power pulsating within us all,” festival director Glitta Supernova said.
